Since my last post I traveled down to Los Angeles to visit John for his birthday. Wow, we stayed in some super nice hotels. John had an idea that we would stay at a different hotel every night so we could experience a few different areas of Los Angeles. We stayed at The Mondrian in West Hollywood, The Ritz-Carlton in Pasadena, and Casa Del Mar and Shutters in Santa Monica. I liked them all for different reasons, but my overall favorite was Shutters. We had an amazing view of the beach, and the room just seemed like we were staying in our own little beach house. It was a great weekend, and I'm even more excited to move down there now!! I really miss John and would like to get down there as soon as I tie everything up here in Seattle. I will be taking a week off of work in January to study for the California exam, and hopefully hear the results by mid-February. Ideally, I would like to be down in California by the end of February. I think once I'm down in California, I will make more of an effort to keep this blog up to date! For right now, I have so much to do as far as preparing for the exam, quitting my job, packing up the house, and moving myself (and Frank!) to Los Angeles.
